I've lived in 11 different places in the last 15 years and can say without hesitation that Atlantic House is the best place I've ever lived (have been living here for 5+ months). The location is top notch - two blocks from the Arts Center MARTA station and TONS of restaurants and bars within easy walking distance, the staff in the building are incredible - maintenance is freakishly responsive (things are, literally, fixed within hours of submitting an online work order), the leasing office houses some of the nicest/most fun people in Atlanta, and there is always a friendly and helpful face behind the front desk. Everybody mentions the amenities at this building because, duh, they're ridiculous - a dog walk, tennis courts, and awesome grilling stations on the 9th floor, not to mention everything going on on the 32nd floor - so I won't go on and on about those.
The apartments are great. Washer and dryer in every unit (and they're actually a really nice stacked set that actually wash and dry your clothes and have a lot of settings), so you don't have to go to a shared laundry facility. Huge "farm" style stainless sinks. Granite in the kitchen and bathrooms. All of the other things that you want in an apartment.
The biggest pro that I will give Atlantic House is that it is remarkably quiet for a huge apartment building in the middle of Midtown. Every once in a while you'll hear your neighbors, but it's very rare with the giant concrete floors/ceilings/walls all around you. The units also seem to be pretty sound proof from outside sounds, as well. Do you hear some of the construction? Yes. Is the sound significantly dampened but the windows and walls? Yes. Stepping from the apartment onto the balcony is sometimes shocking how loud it is outside, but inside you don't hear the road noise or any of the other ambient city noise (obviously still hear sirens and car horns, it's the middle of the city).
I mentioned it earlier in this review, but I want to highlight the facilities staff. They really are absolutely incredible. Things on this property work when you need them to work and if they don't, they get fixed FAST. The common grounds are clean and well maintained, the landscaping around the property is beautiful, the grills are cleaned and always have gas, the pillows are perfectly situation on the couches by the pools, every little thing is always in place and it makes a huge difference. Anything that needs repair in your unit is always fixed very quickly, and if it's something they can't fix in that visit, they actually come back and fix it with whatever additional item/person they needed to procure in a timely manner. I also trust the maintenance staff implicitly to come into my unoccupied home and fix things, which is not a feeling I've had in other places.
I could go on and on about how much I love living here. Is it the cheapest place in Midtown? Nope, but you get what you pay for and then some. Absolutely wonderful place to live.
